Operating and Driving Instructions
The FRONTFLEX
is constructed so that the implement’s centre of gravity is close to
the tractor, reducing the weight of the implement on the tractor as much as possible
and easing operation.
Even when the FRONTFLEX is mounted in the front lift, the implement is drawn
across the field, making it easier to pass over minor obstacles. The frame (A) is
mounted in three points (B and C). The pulling force of the tractor is transmitted
through point (C) which is the only rigidly mounted point. This feature enables the
operator to retain the steering capabilities of the tractor, which must be given high
priority if the FRONTFLEX is to be part of a combination for seedbed preparation.

When starting operation, lower the FRONTFLEX and place the lift in a starting posi-
tion so the implement and the tractor can function independently of one another. If
you are working in loose and friable soil and would like greater control over the ma-
chine, raise the linkage to reduce the slack in the chains. The implement will then be
hanging from the chains (almost tight) instead of resting on the main frame. If the
rings start sinking too deeply into the ground, the main frame and the packer mod-
ule will quickly begin to hang from the chains.
Initially, start with the chains loose and the linkage resting on the nylon rail, ena-
bling the packer module to follow the contours of the field surface.
A working speed between 7 and 10 km/hour is recommended, but always
drive according to conditions.
Never load extra weight onto the FRONTFLEX, as the implement was not designed
to carry additional weight.
When using the double-acting front lift, weight must not be transferred from the
tractor to the FRONTFLEX.
Raise the FRONTFLEX before backing up or turning.
